You will also be self-motivated and driven to source exclusive stories of a high standard.

You will also be expected to use social media to promote our content and source stories.

To apply for this role, please follow our online application process and submit a CV and cover letter.

This is a full-time position working 35 hours per week, based at our Meadowside office. We offer a generous package including 34 days holiday, health cash plan, gym discount, childcare vouchers, excellent pension, a competitive salary, and many more staff discounts and benefits.
